Mermaid Momentum


I thought I'd run a little update. Here is the Mermaid piece with the cab placed loosely in it for a "cab size check". The sprues are now cut off and I can see where I'm going so tomorrow I'll begin the polishing and refining process. Maybe by Monday I'll be able to fit that cab in there perfectly. I'm pretty stoked over the whole thing.

It would look good on a Viking knit chain but since I'm considering this piece for a donation I'm going to stick with the black rubber and silver and add some chain on the back so it's more adjustable.

She's going to need a title. Uh, anyone - ideas please! Maybe Midnight Pond???? I dunno. When I'm playing it "straight" and not yucking it up the ideas are a whole lot tighter than I'd like.

Have a great weekend if you don't get back to see me!

How about Amazing! or Beautiful! Both of those would describe your work well!

OMG, WOW, and lots of !!! I can't think of the right words for the name, but this piece makes me think of how the bottom of that ocean must look with the moonlight making it's way down through the clear water to glint on the occasional fish scale or two!
